People will complain that their kids never get off the screen and don't want to play outside,, nut then you talk to them more and its like OH you TRAINED them that way... you didn't let your kids climb trees cause it was dangerous, you didn't let them play in mud cause it was dirty,, and no you can't play make-believe because you might play "violent" games with good guys and bad guys qnd orange-capped guns, and no you can't ride your bike further than two houses down. Even indoors, you don't see the point in wasting paper and paint to make useless crafts. You don't let them help in the kitchen cause they'll mess up and waste food or get burned. They don't get the mirror in the bathroom clean enough. What if they inhale chemicals? What if they hate you?
You're scared of them getting hurt. You want things done well. It's easier to let them do the easy thing. I get it.
And I can't blame parents for being scared, but you gotta let your kids face things while they are young and brave. And you gotta let them be messy and learn to clean up their own messes.
If you don't, then you can't complain when all they do is play minecraft and watch YouTube and get irritatable at you. You haven't raised a healthy, balanced child.
I know it's easier said than done... but that's a problem I see.

After Jesus rose from the dead, He met His disciples on the beach one morning. This was the third occasion He appeared to a group of them (John 21:14).
Until this moment, Jesus had yet to comment on Peter's denial. The disciple might have expected the Lord to say, "Didn't I tell you that you would be cowardly under pressure?" At the very least, Peter would have expected a firm rebuke, such as he received when he refused to believe Christ had to die (Matthew. 16:21-23).
How does Jesus convey that all is forgiven and Peter is restored to service? He tells Peter to tend His flock. In other words Jesus still believed in Peter. He believes in you today. He is the only one who can restore you.
Do you feel unusable because of past sin? If so, confess your disobedience in genuine repentance, and God will be faithful to forgive you (1 John 1:9). Then ask Him to direct you to the service or work He has for you. Our heavenly Father is the God of second chances.

Recent political joke circulating in China:
Three men who don’t know each other sits in a prison cell. Each explains why he was arrested.
The first man said: “I opposed covid testing.”
The second man said: “I supported covid testing.”
The third man said: “I administered the covid tests.”
